Worst death trap machine ever built,
They have had nothing but deaths and crashes with this type of helicopter.
Praying for our Military they are our real heroes that they be found 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Praying for their families and friends 🙏🙏❤️🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thetr are invisible people using technology roaming inside my property invisibly. Thrse invisible people roaming in Mumbai Crashed this on purpose.
Time to park the Osprey's. As a former Marine, Vietnam Veteran, 19 yrs old back then, anytime I hopped in a Marine Helicopter I had full faith and confidence in the Marine Pilots, Crew Chief's and most importantly, the helicopter itself. The Osprey has pushed the leading edge of Technology TOO FAR. Eventually, new designs will be built and they will be more reliable but for now; Park the darn things
That thing has killed more Americans than the Taliban
Made in USA, high quality widowmaker.
Prayers for the families of these service members. Sure it hits hard with the holidays and all.
✌️❤🇺🇲
This is so sad.
Why are we still using these….
These machines have been nothing but trouble.
Get rid of those stupid planes, they're the worst ever. Now the chinese will say American can't built reliable aircraft just crappy planes.
OC…..not another the Ospry is a death machine segment? Whenever, a new weapon system is brought online there is always some anti-American military lobby out there who think that the entire the system will not work. Remember before Desert Storm, CBS actully had some guy from the Brookings Institute or its evil twin, the Center for Defense Information, get on and tell the whole entire world the a 4th rate miliatry will destory a 1st rate one in days. Instead it was the other way around. Of course, it doesn't help that all of these reporters never served a day in the life or at least took a crash course in. The actors from Platton, Band of Brothers, and Saving Private Ryan know more about the military than any network reporter.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
So you know how these airplanes keep crashing during like non-combat scenarios? Maybe stop using them
600-800 billion of dishonest taxdollars, down with a fart.
Osprey has a lower mishap rate than Harrier, Super Hornet, F-35B, or CH-53E Super Stallion but military aviation is dangerous. US losses in combat are so small because our troops train hard and that means flying many thousands of sorties which mean some level of Class A mishaps. RIP to the fallen. Their work is far from easy, they just make most of it look that way.
Osprey has a record of crashing since its inception, why putting it on service?
That’s why they call them flying coffins.
What happened to good old black hawk or Huey lol
日本特务干的
These have been death traps since the 1980s.
I think that the Osprey is going the way of the Dodo…..🤔🧐😐
There really cool but need a redesign.
Rip
Ok…. So when are we investigating Boeing and their government contracts? Osprey and Chinooks crash all the time!
Dang, sad to hear. Are these the deadliest military based vehicle ever? As useful as they are, it seems they have caused a lot of casualties.
well there goes 8 lives and 100 million dollars. Bad history of technical problems as well, probably best to retire it since they keep killing soldiers and costing money.
